He didn't seem "fucking pissed" to me.

Whatever was going on with Mayer has to be mental.

I don't like that he didn't mention why because he missed almost half the season because of it.

He definitely has talent but according to him football isn't a priority which is odd because he was a rookie last year and doesn't have a big contract.

You would think he would be working his ass off to get that big payday.

Nevertheless this season is a wash and if he was going to go through some shit, better now than later I guess.

Hopefully he's good to go from now on because if he can develop into who they thought he would be when they drafted him.

Because having a 2 headed monster at TE will definitely be a luxury for whoever the QB of the future will be.

Not at all. He has said many time he looked forward to being a 1-2 punch with Bowers. Nothing but a fan made controversy. Nobody misses half the season because a player of the same position is drafted . It makes no sense. It's as ridiculous as tanking. I will trash my career so the team that fires me gets a better draft pick next year

I doubt may GM's or HC's would tank on purpose without buy-in from the owner.

He's talking about "sleeping well" at night, which implies he wasn't doing so before.

Sounds like he got inside his own head and was driving himself crazy. Doesn't seem like a lot of fun.

Hopefully, his head is now in a good place and he can contribute for us.

I’m over this guy.

It’s just a matter of time before his does this shit again.

Yeah, that's concerning to hear. A friend of mine from high school developed a mental illness and would have episodes where he would become obsessed with some minutiae and spiral down into a dark hole. It was like some negative ear worm that he couldn't get over and severe insomnia was one of the symptoms. He was mostly fine between episodes, and it was many years between them, but the last one was the worst, and he wound up committing suicide after months of going through what sounded like an absolute hell. I'm no psychiatrist, so I'm not suggesting it's the same thing Meyers is dealing with, but in that context, life is absolutely more important than football.

Yeah, it's hard to say without expert medical opinions, which I'm sure that the Raiders are getting. Having Bowers on the roster and Meyers on a rookie contract makes it easier to take a chance , but a lot goes into that evaluation.

I don't think we would get much, if anything, for him in a trade. It doesn't sound like this is the first episode, and it could very well be why he dropped to us in the second round.
